North Pakar is the combination of 3 properties: Tiwa Abadi (TA), Tanur Jaya (TJ), and Dermaga Energi (DE) located in Kutai Kartanegara, East Kalimantan. North Pakar is adjacent to Tabang and also has environmentally friendly sub-bituminous coal with calorific content of around 3,700-4,200 Kcal/kg GAR.
